Delicious, drank over several days, great across the board. Lovely moderate full body, redolent with stone fruit, apple, honey, light mineral and lime, hint of resin. Perfectly balanced, so judging from other notes time has been good. Enjoyable light sweetness expressed via the fruit, but then complemented to great interest by the acidity. Nice finish too. Seems it could age nicely, so will let last bottle go a while.

Very light golden color. Nose light florals. Palate crystalline purity; some apricot fruit notes balanced by high acidity. Showing nicely now but could evolve well I think with time. 91 pts

Drank over three nights. Best on day 2. Initially a bit opaque, good balance, light sweetness, yellow stone fruit, citrus, chalk hints. Opened up to fuller body with good length, more floral notes in nose, bit of honey, resin to go with lovely light layered dry/sweet finish of fruit.

Elegant and light - showing lime and green apple, some mint, herbs, and minerals. There is that intoxicating creaminess of the 15's that adds just a little bit. The palate is racy and light - good elegance. Overall, this is missing just a bit for me compared to the superb 2012. Nose - 5/6, Palate - 4.5-5/6, Finish - 4.5-5/6, Je ne Sais Quoi - 1/2 = 15-16/20.

2015 Kabinett tasting (NYC): My 9, group 9. Greener and more herbaceous with very high acid.

Love this. Great lip-pursing acidity, lime, citrus. Juicy, long finish.

Highly intense nose with flint, petrol, flowers.
Very sweet, but balanced and very tasty. I could drink this all day.
Beautiful long finish.
